A special note of thanks to the late Jean Thweatt Hand
(Messick '69), whose willingness to share her digital
transfers of Mr. Swayzee's old LP recordings originally made
this portion of the website possible. That's Jean on the far
right of the saxophone section!

And another special thanks to David Ryan (also a '69 Panther),
who went on to a distinguished career as a band director in
West Tennessee.
